We're Ready!

A new school year always brings excitement about seeing old friends and making new ones, learning new subjects, and participating in fun school activities. It also brings questions about important issues such as school calendars and transportation. The back-to-school website is designed to answer those questions and to help students and parents prepare for the new school year. Click back-to-school below to visit.

Attendance is the leading indicator of your child’s lifelong success

Every day counts! We care that every student shows up to school, all day every day. Cabarrus County Schools is committed to working with families to ensure that every student attends school regularly and achieves their full potential. By prioritizing attendance, we can create a brighter future for all our students. 

All absences will be coded unexcused unless an email or a written note from the parent/guardian is received. State law allows absences to be excused for the following reasons: Illness or Injury, Death in the Immediate Family, Medical or Dental Appointments, Court or Administrative Proceedings, Religious Observance and Educational Opportunity. For Educational Opportunity absences, your request must be submitted for consideration five (5) days prior to the absence. Please contact your teacher or our front office for the Educational Opportunity form. All other absences are coded as unlawful. Absences for personal trips are not excused according to state guidelines. In order to be considered in attendance, a student must be present at least one-half of the school day. At the elementary level more than ten (10) absences a semester or  twenty (20) absences a year are considered excessive. If illness is given as the primary reason for non-attendance, the principal (at her discretion) may request a physician’s documentation.

We use ParentSquare for school communication, primarily with email, text and app notifications which allows district, school administrators and teachers to more effectively communicate and engage with families and students. ParentSquare automatically generates an account for each parent using their preferred email address and phone number.

We encourage parents to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences, including when and how they receive notifications.

ParentSquare is a safe, secure, and modern approach to communication and collaboration between school and home. Learn more about ParentSquare.

Edulog is an app that lets parents view the location of their student's school bus to gauge arrival times each day. The app sends a push notification to the parent's smartphone when the bus enters a user-defined geographic area around the stop. Parents only receive access by registering with data unique to their child. It's all information to help parents feel secure about their child's trip on the school bus!
